As announced a few days ago, here are more details about the WAR licence transfer.
Mythic Entertainment will soon assume operational responsibility for European players as of July 7th. As stated before, all your characters, guilds and account information will be migrated to Mythic servers and will be available to present and past players.

Tomorrow morning, we will transfer player’s data to Mythic, which will require a short server maintenance. Due to the transition model we are advising you to remove items from your in-game mailbox and the Auction House before the short server maintenance.

Following this operation, current and former European subscribers will be able to log-in and play the game for a free transitional period on GOA’s servers until July 6th. During this transitional period, character progression and experience will be suspended. When the process has completed, the European Mythic servers will be brought online and will be continually monitored during this transitional period. All game play during this period will be free for existing subscribers and current European subscribers will receive two weeks of free game play beginning 7th July.

We’d like to take this opportunity as a personal thank you for being a part of the GOA Warhammer Online European community and hope you go on to enjoy WAR for many more exciting battles yet to come!

We're pleased to announce that Game Update 1.3.5 is coming to all European servers tomorrow morning, 20/5/2010. We will be bringing all European servers offline at 8:00 AM GMT for the implementation of Game Update 1.3.5.

We’ve heard your feedback that the experience curve can be steep in certain levels of Aion, and over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been evaluating how we want to address this issue to provide for smoother character progression. While we’re committed to providing a permanent solution, our long-term plans require development time. As part of that process, we are implementing a temporary enhancement so that you can feel immediate benefits that we’re excited to be rolling out this weekend.

To aid you in your travels we will be implementing double experience weekends over the next three weeks. These bonus weekends will affect characters levels 1–35. This includes crafting and gathering experience as well. After the upcoming three weekends, we plan on hosting bonus experience weekends once or twice a month. We want to make it easier for you to experience what Aion has to offer for your characters after level 35.

We are also adding a few permanent benefits with this week’s patch. Soul Healing will be less expensive for characters of all levels, and we’re increasing the experience bonus that Energy of Repose bestows for levels 20–44.

While the above is an interim solution, we will be addressing the character progression experience curve with a sizeable patch next year. We look forward to hearing your comments, and we hope you have fun during these bonus weekends. Make sure to tell your friends —the more the merrier!
